About 716 Spirit Hill Road, Hillsborough, North Carolina, 27278
Live freely on Spirit Hill in this stunning HOA-free home, situated on the largest lot in a charming neighborhood of custom homes. Perched on a scenic corner, this 1.36-acre property is bordered by mature oak trees, natural wooded areas, large boulders, and thoughtfully landscaped spaces that transition beautifully into a lush, drought-tolerant TifTuf Bermuda lawn, installed in 2023 for easy maintenance and year-round greenery. Nestled between the open lawn and surrounding woods is a unique circular fire pit area, artistically designed with river stones and rustic white oak stump seating—perfect for cozy evenings under the stars. This property also includes a high-capacity private well, and a whole-home water filtration system installed in January 2024, easily accessible from the crawl space. Step through the beautiful stained wood and glass front door into a bright and functional entryway, where the ideal home office awaits—complete with French doors and a commanding view of the property. The main level features gorgeous hardwood floors, a spacious primary suite with a private foyer entrance, a luxurious zero-entry shower, and a massive walk-in closet. The gourmet kitchen boasts stainless steel KitchenAid appliances, quartz countertops, and a large island that flows seamlessly into the open dining and living area. The cozy living room features a striking stone fireplace and built-in cabinetry, creating an inviting and cohesive space for gatherings. Double glass doors off the dining area lead to a large screened back porch built on a concrete slab, offering the perfect space for relaxing or entertaining. Adjacent to the kitchen is a large laundry and utility room with custom cabinetry, bench seating, and built-in storage cubbies. From here, access the spacious 2-car garage. Upstairs, enjoy more beautiful hardwood flooring throughout a massive loft/living area, flanked by a large walk-in storage room that spans the length of the second floor—ideal for future expansion. Two generous bedrooms, each with large walk-in closets, share a full bathroom, offering plenty of space for guests or a growing family. Above the garage, a huge bonus room offers endless flexibility—perfect as an additional bedroom, studio, office, or gym—with attic access and dormer doors on either side providing ample storage. Outdoors, this expansive lot is a blank canvas for your dream retreat—garden beds, play areas, or simply space to relax and unwind in nature.
